Efficiency

We work efficiently to ensure our success.

To us, being successful means making a profit. This ensures continuous optimisation of the refinery and staff development while also enabling us to build a solid foundation on which we can continue to maintain our position as a leading company in the region. We are thus able to yield a return for our investors that makes it possible for us to maintain our high standards. Management and staff are therefore committed to optimising and expanding margin potential on a continuous basis and to efficiently managing the funds available. Only by sensitising all staff members to an effective cost/benefit view on a regular basis can we ensure our long-term success.
